We’ve got great chemistry in our classrooms!

Our students got hands-on with science this week! In Mr. Sevachko’s class, the annual egg drop challenged students to design protective chambers to help their eggs survive the impact.

In Mr. Underwood’s class, students explored the law of conservation of matter by burning steel wool, dissolving tablets and melting ice. Meanwhile, Ms. Friesenborg’s students extracted DNA from strawberries!

With so much to discover, even our district administrators had to join in the fun!
